Sink repair in Romanby

About our sink repair in Romanby

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks starting at the waste and chips on the rim or front edge.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Romanby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole basin

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Questions from Romanby

How do I get a price for sink repair in Romanby?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us
